Fu Character
The character ''Fú'' (, Unicode U+798F) meaning "fortune" or "good luck" is represented both as a Chinese ideograph and, at times, pictorially, in one of its homophonous forms. It is often found on a figurine of the male god of the same name, one of the trio of "star gods" ''Fú, Lù, Shòu''. Mounted ''Fú'' are a widespread Chinese tradition associated with Chinese New Year and can be seen on the entrances of many Chinese homes worldwide. The characters are generally printed on a square piece of paper or stitched in fabric. The practice is universal among Chinese people regardless of socioeconomic status, and dates to at least the Song Dynasty (AD 960 – 1279). When displayed as a Chinese ideograph, ''Fú'' is often displayed upside-down on diagonal red squares. The reasoning is based on a wordplay: in nearly all varieties of Chinese, the words for "upside-down" (, Pinyin: dào) and "to arrive" (, Pinyin: dào) are homophonous. Therefore, the phrase an "upside-down ''Fú'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
